"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.

DOLL FAQ

DOLL FAQ

What are these dolls?

They are called Ball-jointed-dolls (BJD) and they come from different asian companys - from Japan, China or South Korea for example. You can move every part of their body because of their ball-joints and elastic strings inside their body. They have wigs, changeable eyes and if you want you can change or remove every part of their body too. And of course you can give them their own style with selfmade make-up (called face-up). Also usually they are anatomical correct with every part of their body, so it's a shame to compare them with Barbie dolls!

Are your Dolls for sale?

We don't sell any dolls. They are our own collection, so please don't ask for selling them! Thank you for understanding!

How tall are they?

There're so much different sizes. For example you can find very tiny dolls (about 10cm), Yo-SD (about 25cm), MSD (about 40cm), SD (about 60cm) and also you can find dolls taller than 70cm, so we saw dolls with a height of 90cm too! Our Dolls are 21cm - 68cm.

How much do they cost?

You can find Dolls in different price categories. The companies make their own prices, but the cheapest dolls are about 100$ (tiny dolls) and if you have enough money you can afford dolls for more than 1.500$ too... But our weren't that much expensive, of course.

Do you take Face-up commissions?

At the moment Michi only takes commissions from Germany. Her shop "Colors of Soul" can be found on the german BJD forum Dollicted! Please check her conditions there, thank you!

What do you use for your Face-ups and Tattoos?

Michi works with usual watercolor pencils (aquarelle), pastels and sometimes with acylic, but everything have to be oil-free! Clear acylic paint (from Tamiya Color) for shiny lips and eyes. Mr. Color Thinner for removing the old face-ups. And Mr. Super Clear FLAT (MSC) and Purity Seal for fixing face-ups.

And what do you use for Monster High and Pullip repaints?

MH - acetone-free and oilfree nailpolish remover for removing the old color, MSC flat for sealing before and after painting, soft pastels and aquarelle/watercolor pencils. Everything oil-free of course too.

At the moment we don't have a face-up tutorial yet, but we really can recommend AndrejAs YouTube Channel! She's a fantastic Face-Up Artist and answered most of the usual questions in her Videos. Please take a look: Link

Where do you buy your Dolls and Clothes?

Usually we buy our Dolls direcly from the manufacturer, middlemen on Ebay or on second hand markets. And Clothes we usually buy on Ebay or other BJD online stores too. For example: SW&Doll, Tatas Paradise, Alice Collections. But also we sew some things by ourself!^^

We have always watched Animes and read Mangas. So since a very long time we love Japan. And also we love to collect Manga PVC Figures and some day we saw many photos of these beautiful dolls in the internet. We always dreamt about having such a doll too, but as you know they are so expensive. But we've got many informations about sizes, prices and price differences and since the beginning of 2011 we have our first own Dolls too!

Can I use your photos as stock/reference?

No. Usually we don't give permission to use our pictures in any way, especially not for commercial use. We only take photos for fun and sharing with you, please understand our decision~ We tolerate it when they are credietd and linked back to us. But if you find stolen photos (on tumbr, FB, ebay or other websites) without crediting, please report them, that would be nice! Thank you!^^

If you want to learn more about these dolls please visit Wikipedia or use Google.

It is such an honour for us that we had the chance to be interviewed by Setsuu! He's a long-time BJD admirer and with writing this blog and doing interviews he keeps on saving for the first doll^^Please visit his blog: ball-jointed.weebly.com/And the interview with us can be found at: ball-jointed.weebly.com/blog/i…

Thank you a lot again for all the nice praise, although we really don't feel that popular and there are a lot other BJD collectors here that are much more popular than us... But we're happy we could help you to discover the world of ball jointed dolls!
